    I live in Pennsylvania...and you'd never believe this but
    1.It it illegal to sleep on top of a refrigerator outdoors.:yawn:
    2.You may not sing in the bathtub.:bigsmile:
    3.A special cleaning ordinance bans housewives from hiding dirt and dust under a rug in a dwelling.:devil:
    4.It is illegal to have over 16 women live in a house together because that constitutes a brothel. (I guess this also means...my father couldn't live with me and my 10 sisters, grandmother and my mom her 3 sisters) :noway:
    5.You may not catch a fish with your hands.:ohwell:
    6.You may not catch a fish by any body part except the mouth.:sick:

    This caught me off guard and made me snort.

    Nothing but Food, Pharmecutical items, and Toiletries can be sold in Bergen County, NJ on Sundays. (No clothing, no furniture, no home decor, nothing)

    ^Any stores that sell clothing mixed with other items (like Target, Walmart, etc.) MUST have the illegal sections blocked off every sunday, or close down for the day.

    They call it "the blue laws" and it is a really, really, really old law that nobody wants to get rid of.

    Oh I forgot another one


    New Jersey is one of 2 (I think?) States where it is ILLEGAL to pump your own gas.

    I grew up in NY, and having to wait for some idiot to pump my gas is super annoying.

    I know that is the case in Oregon. They don't want to pay the insurance premiums that they would need in order to let customers pump the gas. I always forget when I drive through. lol
